LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Authorities say a Kentucky teenager known as a jokester was strangled by a dog lead he put around his neck while playing with friends at the start of summer vacation.
Estill County Coroner Tony Murphy said Monday that 16-year-old Tony Conley died near his home in eastern Kentucky when he apparently jumped off an outdoor deck staircase and the dog lead tightened around his neck. He called it a freak accident and a terrible tragedy.
Murphy says friends tried but were unable to cut the metal cable and Conley was pronounced dead at the scene Friday evening.
Conley had just finished his freshman year at Estill County High School hours before his death.
Football coach Mike Jones called him a good kid who was a jokester.
The headline reads: 2 Donkeys Suspected in Mauling Death.
I wasn't aware that donkeys were capable of mauling someone. Even more bizarre, the guy was riding a motorcycle (apparently minding his own business) when two donkeys came along and pulled him off the motorbike, dragged him some 150 feet, and then bite and trampled him to death.
Interestingly enough, a man I personally know, Hollywood Park, TX, mayor Bill Bohlke, was also killed by a donkey last August 2012.
I will never look at Donkey from Shrek ever the same again.

The coffee tasted sweet because it was laced with a sweet-tasting toxic chemical used in antifreeze and medical research, ethylene glycol, according to a criminal complaint filed with the Harris County District Attorney's Office. The complaint referred to the chemical as "a deadly weapon."
And these guys were going to use it on none other than our president.

TWO men have been arrested over a plot to kill US President Barack Obama with a giant homemade death ray. The FBI arrested 49-year-old Glendon Scott Crawford, from Galway, New York, and his friend Eric J. Feight, 54, of Hudson, New York, foiling the pair's plan to kill Obama, who Crawford blamed for the recent Boston marathon bombings. Crawford had built a homemade X-ray machine that used deadly amounts of radiation to kill targets and could be detonated remotely, ABC news reports. The FBI said the device would have been both "functional" and "lethal". They said Crawford had called his design "Hiroshima on a light switch".
